COMMON SENSE
Edwin E. Pearlman, a leading
barrister• of British Columbia; and
an expert. on labor relations, in an
address to the Kiwanis Club of Oak
Bay, Victoria, said that he was
speaking on behalf of "the forgotten
third party in labor-management
disputes, namely, the public".
Mr. Pearlman was sure that a con-
tinuance of strikes in B.C. would
lead the province to economic disas-
ter. He believed the 'courts should
intervene. Here are some quota-
tions from Mr. Pearlman's address :
"Just as the abuses of the employer
led to remedial legislation, so the
abuses of privilege conferred by the
Labour and Trade Union Acts'point
to' the necessity for restraint in,
labor disputes."
"Trade unions have received the
legal status to do business and con-,
tract obligations, They should also
share the obligations and observe
contracts."
"A labor dispute is not essential-
ly different from any other contract
dispute. If the parties cannot settle
it, some Competent authority; a
jodge„ a .labor court, or call it what
ydu will', should be established to
deal with it."
